About This Property

Stunning full bay views as you enter this jaw-dropping magnificent, completely custom renovated stand-alone villa on Sarasota Bay. Professionally designed starting with an 18-by-11-foot gourmet kitchen. With 10-12-foot wood beam ceilings, a beautiful 12-foot quartz island that seats 10-plus people, solid wood cabinetry, Café’ brand double oven, refrigerator with two additional drawers, stainless steel appliance, huge undermount sink, glass backsplash, separate wet bar and more. The 2-by4-foot white porcelain rectangular tile flows seamlessly from room to room with water views that entertain you every moment of every day. With the Intracoastal Waterway just beyond the brick paver back patio, the wildlife is abundant, more than you can imagine, with morning sunrises that softly greet you as you awaken to a true slice of paradise. The entire glass-enclosed 23-by-12-foot lanai brings so much light, brightness and cheerfulness that it makes your heart smile. The end unit offers privacy and protection with lush green mangroves creating a protected area plus easy access for entering the water, going for a swim, fishing or kayaking. Back to the renovations, the main bedroom en suite offers privacy with upscale bath appointments, a double sink, and large designer shower. The enclosed laundry area right off the bedroom was carefully crafted with a walk-in closet, extra storage room and a rare whole-house water purification system. Not to mention all hurricane windows and doors throughout with additional footings, foam support and steel beams under the sliding doors to ensure structural integrity and peace of mind. All appliances are 2025, LG Thin Q washer and dryer, Café kitchen appliances, tankless hot water tank, custom fan and lights, all new plumbing and electrical as the home was taken down to the studs. PVC sewer lines completely replaced all cast iron pipes. New tile roof in 2025. There is nothing to do except move in and relax. You will not be disappointed. All FEMA regulations have been completed, including inspections. Vibrant waterfront 55-plus community with 40-slip marina and deeded beach access to gorgeous beaches of Longboat Key.
